RE 1 ATI LIVESTOCK MARKET CONTRACT Farmers throughout Ontario will be given an opportunity of marketing their cattle, sheep and hogs on a strictly co-operative basis. The share- holders of The United Farmers Co- operative Company, Limited,. at their annual meeting a few weeks ago, gave the directors authority to arrange for meetings at which to discuss the Hog Pool anid Live Stock Contract, and then approve of this new system of marketing which has been adopted with such satisfaction to the farmer in recent years. The Directors met December 20th, and decided to ask each county to send a representative to confer with the Company directors in Toronto on Jan. 24th. In the short time that remains before the conference it will be im- possible to give assistance to all counties, Arrangements are being made, however, for meetings in Duf- ferin, Grey and Simcoe at which to discuss this method of marketing, and answer questions. Leaders of the farmer movement in other counties are urged to see that their county 1s represented by a strong delegation at the Toronto meeting on January 24th, 1. Details will there be worked out for local meetings and a campaign for membership. ne IMMIGRATION FACTS Total Distribution Since 1901.-- Maritime Provinces, 189,192; Quebec, 625,683; Ontario, 1,181,426; Manitoba 562,786; Saskatchewan and Alberta combined, 1,086,406; British Colum- bia and Yukon Territory, 488,495; unaccounted for, 13,396.

There were only four cases reported where the teacher had objections to teaching a: Fifth Class, and the rea- son in these cases was a lack of time. In looking over the statistics of the four schools where these teachers are engaged, it is found that the attend- ance was 30, 86, 38 and 40 which would seem to indicate that the teach- er had enough to occupy all her time without the addition of the Fifth 4 Class.
